I have come to discover that
I am most truly myself when I am
not
My-Self.
The truest aspect of my being
is that which resides
in the deep silence,
beneath emotions, passions,
fears, regrets,
past and future,
the desire to plan ahead,
or to reproach what has gone
before.
When I am able to reach
that quiet realm where I rest in
God,
I experience a freedom
which can sustain me throughout
the day.
Most often, I experience this
freedom
in fleeting moments,
because all the stuff of my
egoic life
tries to crowd out the silence
and tries to convince me how
significant and important it
really is,
and how deserving my attention.
Futile, fleeting flights of
fancy
are these thoughts.
It is best to let them pass
through
without leaving any residue,
and to return to the breath
which will lead me back
to blessed silence
and divine reality.
God bless you! Have a nice
weekend.
I will be on vacation next week,
so I won’t guarantee that I will post every day.
